Fuck the patent system in this country. It's doing more harm than good these days, I'm afraid.

- jacquesm 17y agoConstructive use of the word 'fuck' on HN. Kudos :) The patent system is about as broken as it gets, I'm on the swing with regards to what to do about it, abolish it completely or overhaul it. I also think there ought to be a strict rule that if you hold a patent you have to market a product within a year of receiving your patent that uses your patented stuff in an essential way.
- ubernostrum 17y agoFor maximum style points, the post should have taken advantage of the fact (related to me by my college linguistics prof) that "fucking" is one of only a few generally-accepted (by linguists) infixes in the English language.
